Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pest control technology for navel oranges, specifically to a spraying device for preventing insect pests in navel oranges. Background Technology
[0002] With continuous technological advancements and societal development, modern agriculture is moving towards efficient and large-scale production. Traditional manual farming methods can no longer meet its development needs, and mechanization and intelligentization have become inevitable trends in modern agricultural development. In the navel orange cultivation sector, every stage from planting to harvesting faces pressure to improve efficiency and quality, especially in the spraying and harvesting stages, where the demand for labor is even more pronounced.
[0003] In recent years, the shortage of agricultural labor has become increasingly prominent, which has not only affected the normal operation of navel orange cultivation but also led to a continuous rise in agricultural labor costs. Against this backdrop, the introduction of automated equipment is particularly important, as it can effectively alleviate the labor shortage, significantly reduce production costs, and improve economic efficiency.
[0004] However, traditional pesticide spraying methods have many drawbacks, such as difficulty in accurately controlling the dosage, leading to overuse and uneven spraying. This not only wastes resources but also pollutes the environment, negatively impacting soil and water resources, and hindering sustainable agricultural development. Currently, although some automated spraying equipment exists on the market, most suffer from low levels of automation and intelligence, and poor adaptability to crop height and complexity. For example, common vehicle-mounted orchard sprayers, while saving some manpower, still require manual operation of the spray gun and cannot achieve precise application. Furthermore, while some advanced automated orchard spraying systems employ various sensor technologies such as GIS, GPS, and machine vision, the application of these technologies is limited by the complexity of the orchard environment and crop growth conditions, and their operation is relatively complex, making it difficult to efficiently meet the precision spraying needs of navel orange cultivation.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of insect control spraying device for navel oranges that can combine the trends of modern agricultural development, effectively solve the problems existing in the current spraying methods, and achieve precise, efficient and environmentally friendly spraying operations to meet the modern needs of navel orange cultivation and promote the sustainable development of the navel orange industry.

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a spraying device for insect control in navel oranges, comprising:
[0007] The vehicle frame is equipped with a moving mechanism for driving the device. A storage tank for storing pesticide and a control box for housing the control system are fixedly connected to the frame. A working mechanism for spraying pesticide and removing damaged fruit is rotatably connected to the frame. The working mechanism includes a conversion frame, a spraying mechanism, and a removal mechanism. The spraying mechanism and the removal mechanism are fixedly connected to both ends of the conversion frame. The spraying mechanism includes a motor and an arc plate. The motor is fixedly connected to the conversion frame, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the arc plate. The arc plate is connected to the storage tank. The arc plate sprays pesticide around the navel oranges.
[0008] Furthermore, multiple dispensing tubes are provided on the inner side of the arc-shaped plate, and multiple nozzles are fixedly connected to each dispensing tube. A delivery tube connects the dispensing tubes to the arc-shaped plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the removal mechanism includes motor five, a fixed plate, motor six, gear rods, grippers, and a support rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the mobile mechanism adopts a tracked structure.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. Precise application, environmentally friendly and efficient. This device combines a control system with a spraying mechanism to achieve precise and quantitative spraying. During operation, the amount of pesticide can be precisely controlled according to the specific growth condition of the navel orange trees and the distribution of pests, avoiding the problems of difficulty in controlling the amount of pesticide and uneven spraying common in traditional spraying methods. This effectively reduces pesticide waste and lowers production costs. At the same time, it reduces the excessive use of chemical pesticides, lowers pollution to the soil, water sources, and other ecological environments, and conforms to the concept of sustainable development in modern agriculture.

[0023] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the technical solutions in the specific embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described below to further illustrate this utility model. Obviously, the specific embodiments described are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them.
[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the navel orange insect control spraying device includes a frame 1, on which a moving mechanism 2 is installed for driving the device. The moving mechanism 2 uses tracks, which have strong grip and adhesion, allowing it to travel stably on muddy, soft, and uneven orchard ground, unrestricted by terrain. A pesticide storage tank 3 for storing pesticide solution and a control box 4 for housing the control system are fixedly connected to the frame 1. A working mechanism 5 for spraying and removing damaged fruit is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The pesticide storage tank 3 is made of high-performance composite material and integrates a control system that can monitor parameters such as pesticide solution temperature, pH value, and liquid level in the tank 3 in real time. The control system integrates multiple sensors to achieve comprehensive monitoring of the orchard environment and the condition of the navel oranges, providing rich data support to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of operations.
[0025] The operating mechanism 5 also includes a base plate 51, a seat plate 52, a large arm 54, a small arm 55, a conversion frame 58, a spraying mechanism 59, and a removal mechanism 510. The base plate 51 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. Two seat plates 52 are fixedly connected to the base plate 51. A large arm 54 is rotatably connected to each of the two seat plates 52. A small arm 55 is rotatably connected to the other end of the large arm 54. The other end of the small arm 55 is rotatably connected to the middle of the conversion frame 58. The spraying mechanism 59 and the removal mechanism 510 are fixedly connected to both ends of the conversion frame 58, respectively. The spraying mechanism 59 is responsible for spraying pesticides on the navel oranges, and the removal mechanism 510 is responsible for removing diseased and rotten fruits.
[0026] The base plate 52 is equipped with a motor 53 for driving the boom 54 to rotate, a motor 56 for driving the forearm 55 to rotate at the connection between the boom 54 and the forearm 55, and a motor 57 for driving the conversion frame 58 to rotate at the connection between the forearm 55 and the conversion frame 58. The rotation of the base plate 51 drives the entire working mechanism 5 to rotate, and the cooperation of motors 53 and 56 raises the boom 54 and forearm 55 to a higher height, ultimately enabling the spraying mechanism 59 and the removal mechanism 510 to operate at different angles and heights.
[0027] The spraying mechanism 59 includes a motor 591 and an arc plate 592. The motor 591 is fixedly connected to the conversion frame 58, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the arc plate 592. The arc plate 592 is connected to the storage tank 3. Because the arc plate 592 is curved to fit the shape of the navel orange, and with the motor 591 driving the arc plate 592 to rotate, the navel orange can be sprayed around.
[0028] To ensure more even spraying, multiple distribution tubes 594 are provided on the inner side of the arc plate 592. Each distribution tube 594 is fixedly connected to multiple nozzles 595, and a delivery tube 593 connects the distribution tube 594 and the arc plate 592.
[0029] The removal mechanism 510 includes a motor 5101, a fixed plate 5102, a motor 5103, a gear rod 5104, a gripper 5105, and a support rod 5106. The motor 5101 is fixedly connected to the conversion frame 58, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 5102. A pair of gear rods 5104 are rotatably connected to the fixed plate 5102, and the gear parts of the gear rods 5104 are meshed. The motor 5103 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 5102 on the other side of the gear rods 5104. The output shaft of the motor 5103 is fixedly connected to the gear part of one of the gear rods 5104. The long rod ends of both gear rods 5104 are hinged to grippers 5105. One end of the support rod 5106 is hinged to the middle of the gripper 5105, and the other end is hinged to the fixed plate 5102. The fixed plate 5102 is rotated by motor 5101, which positions the two grippers 5105 on both sides of the navel orange branch. Then, the two grippers 5105 are closed by motor 6 5103, which can remove diseased and rotten fruit.
[0030] During spraying, with the assistance of the control system, the angle and height of the spraying mechanism 59 are flexibly adjusted via the base plate 51, motor 1 53, and motor 2 56 to bring the spraying mechanism 59 close to the navel oranges. Then, motor 4 591 is activated to rotate the arc-shaped plate 592 to spray the navel oranges in a circular motion. When the control system identifies diseased or damaged fruit, motor 5101 drives the fixed plate 5102 to rotate, positioning the two grippers 5105 on either side of the navel orange branches. Then, motor 6 5103 drives the two grippers 5105 to close, allowing the diseased or damaged fruit to be removed. If this is inconvenient, motor 3 57 can drive the conversion frame 58 to rotate, thereby switching the positions of the spraying mechanism 59 and the removal mechanism 510.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the concept or basic characteristics of this utility model.
